The homeodomain complement of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi suggests that Ctenophora and Porifera diverged prior to the ParaHoxozoa

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2010
Background The much-debated phylogenetic relationships of the five early branching metazoan lineages (Bilateria, Cnidaria, Ctenophora, Placozoa and Porifera) are of fundamental importance in piecing together events that occurred early in animal evolution.

Evolution of the Cdk4/6–Cdkn2 system in invertebrates

open access: yesGenes to Cells, Volume 29, Issue 11, Page 1037-1051, November 2024.
Hypothesis on the evolution of the Cdkn2 locus. (a) Loss of Cdkn2 occurred multiple times. (b) Evolution of microsynteny at the Cdkn2 locus. Cdkn2e is a hypothetical transient gene. Abstract The cell cycle is driven by cyclin‐dependent kinases (Cdks). The decision whether the cell cycle proceeds is made during G1 phase, when Cdk4/6 functions.

Comparative multiomics analyses reveal the breed effect on the colonic host–microbe interactions in pig

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2024.
The colon contents of the Jiaxing Black (JXB) and the Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire (DLY) pigs were collected for transcriptomic and metagenomic analyses. By using Weighted Gene Co‐expression Network Analysis and sparse Canonical correlation analysis, we identified the potential interactions between host genes and gut microbes, indicating that host ...

Early animal evolution: a morphologist's view [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Two hypotheses for the early radiation of the metazoans are vividly discussed in recent phylogenomic studies, the ‘Porifera-first’ hypothesis, which places the poriferans as the sister group of all other metazoans, and the ‘Ctenophora-first’ hypothesis ...

Evolutionary origin of the nervous system from Ctenophora prospective

open access: yesEvolution &Development, Volume 26, Issue 4, July 2024.
This review discusses the evolutionary origin of the nervous system in light of the latest findings in the neuroscience of Ctenophora, one of the most enigmatic and earliest diverging animal lineages. Abstract Nervous system is one of the key adaptations underlying the evolutionary success of the majority of animal groups. Ctenophores (or comb jellies)

Molecular mechanisms of perilipin protein function in lipid droplet metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 598, Issue 10, Page 1170-1198, May 2024.
Lipid droplets (LDs) are important for the storage of energy and lipid components. The perilipin family in mammals includes five proteins (PLIN1 to PLIN5), all of which are abundant on the surface of LDs in different tissues and play a role in LD stability and degradation by lipases.

Dendrogramma, new genus, with two new non-bilaterian species from the marine bathyal of southeastern Australia (Animalia, Metazoa incertae sedis)--with similarities to some medusoids from the Precambrian Ediacara.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
A new genus, Dendrogramma, with two new species of multicellular, non-bilaterian, mesogleal animals with some bilateral aspects, D. enigmatica and D. discoides, are described from the south-east Australian bathyal (400 and 1000 metres depth).

Comparative genomics and the nature of placozoan species. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2018
Placozoans are a phylum of nonbilaterian marine animals currently represented by a single described species, Trichoplax adhaerens, Schulze 1883. Placozoans arguably show the simplest animal morphology, which is identical among isolates collected ...

Evo-devo of non-bilaterian animals

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2015
The non-bilaterian animals comprise organisms in the phyla Porifera, Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Placozoa. These early-diverging phyla are pivotal to understanding the evolution of bilaterian animals.
